UFC on FX 2 took place at Sydney’s Allphones Arena. The main card aired on FX, and FUEL TV and FX carried the prelims.

Benavidez earned his award with a thundering second-round knockout of Yasuhiro Urushitani in the night’s co-headliner. The bout was part of the inaugural four-man flyweight tournament, and Benavidez advanced to the finals with his win.

Kampmann earned his award with a stunning come-from-behind victory over welterweight Thiago Alves in the main event. Down two rounds to none on two of the three scorecards, he secured a fight-ending guillotine choke in the final minute of the fight.

Johnson and McCall fought in an action-packed flyweight-tourney fight. Johnson initially was declared the split-decision winner, and then officials said it was a majority decision for him. But in the post-fight press conference, officials announced a tabulation error resulted in incorrect announcements, and the fight was actually a draw. However, the error was caught too late for the fight to go to what would have been a mandatory sudden-victory fourth round. The fighter now will rematch later this month as the tourney is put on hold.
